This module integrates the Video.js HTML5 media player with Drupal. It allows videos to be played across various devices and browsers, using a Flash fallback for older systems. The module provides configuration options for fields and views, and supports features like subtitles and looping.
Video.js is a HTML5-based video player with a built-in Flash fallback for older browsers. This means that videos can be played on nearly all devices and operating systems, provided the right codecs are used.
This module is a support module for Video.js. It doesn't contain Video.js itself, but integrates it with the File, Link and Video modules after you've installed it.
